Calling all Latin/Hispanic Heritage skaters

[Arsenette]

Many of you remember me - just wanted to remind ya of an organization created to help promote skating within the Latin Community. Starting from scratch again is never good and with many still considering me as a main part of the Puerto Rican (only) community it will take a while and maybe fresh faces to convince many of our task to serve the ENTIRE Latin community.

If you are hispanic/latin skater or know someone that would like to become involved - please feel free to contact me and/or visit us online.

Latino Skating.org (http://www.latinoskating.org/)

Our FAQ (http://www.latinoskating.org/FAQ.htm) section hopefully can answer any questions you have.

Thanks,

We do have a small Flyer here About Page (http://www.latinoskating.org/About.htm) on the left side of the screen (.pdf format). Hope it helps and let me know if they need anything else additional.

Thanks again!

Just bumping this up :halo:

It's been a while since I actually posted here. 8-)

Though I find it admirable that you're trying to promote skating in the latino community, why make it a latino only organisation? Wouldn't it be more benefitial to be included in the 'mainstream skating world'?

[Arsenette]

We are in the mainstream :) I'm not asking anyone to change countries or anything like that. Just celebrate their heritage exactly where they are :halo:

I've found during this journey a large number of skaters with Latin heritage who thought they were "rare" in the sport. It's a way of celebrating who they are with everyone else. Heck.. in most of our events we have Latino and non-latinos skating to Latin music as a way of celebrating the culture.

Quite frankly I don't see anything wrong with that. Every culture does it in their own way. :)
